NFL coaches will have a lot of tough decisions to make throughout training camp.

There are a number of talented football players that deserve a chance to play in the NFL, but there are only so many spots for these players.

Unfortunately, only 53 men will make up the final roster of the 2012 Jacksonville Jaguars and live out their dreams of playing at the highest level of professional football.

Between now and Week 1 of the regular season, 38 other men will have their childhood dreams dashed.

Who will make the cut?

Stay tuned to this story throughout the course of training camp, as it will have daily roster updates on who will suit up in a Jaguars uniform in 2012.

August 28 Cuts

1 of 18

Here's a list of guys who were cut before the August 28 deadline:

CB Ashton Youboty: The Jags brought in a slew of cornerbacks at the beginning of camp, making it a dog fight for the limited roster spots. Despite being a league veteran, Youboty was cut due to him not standing out among the young talent the team brought in this season.

A veteran like Youboty will more than likely find another landing spot in 2012 as teams finalize their rosters and more injuries will unfortunately occur.

LB Donovan Richard: Richard was a victim of both the numbers game and a lack of production during the preseason. In three preseason games he recorded two tackles and two assists. That along with the quality play of J.K. Schaffer made a guy like Richard expendable.

Richard more than likely not land on another NFL roster.

DB Mike Holmes: The same goes for Mike Holmes as he was brought in merely as a camp body.

OT Dan Hoch: Hoch had an uphill battle from the very beginning. With injuries across the offensive line, the reserves got their chance to show their worth and they did. Unfortunately, Hoch never really got that chance. Chances are that this will be the last you see of Hoch until maybe training camp 2013/

RB DuJuan Harris: The emergence of Rashad Jennings, Keith Toston and Montell Owens gave head coah Mike Mularkey some tough decisions to make regarding the backfield. Harris was a marginally productive back with the Jaguars for a couple of seasons, but his time ran out with a new regime in place.

QB Nathan Enderle: Enderle was behind the eight-ball to make the final 53-man roster throughout the preseason. It was only a matter of time before he was given his walking papers. I, personally, would be shocked if he showed up on another NFL roster.

FB Brock Bolen: Bolen was in one of the bigger position battles heading into camp, and he apparently could not beat out the ole veteran Greg Jones.

Jones showed he still has a lot to offer blocking for Rashad Jennings during the preseason, which made Bolen expendable. Although he may have been put on waivers, Bolen could still be eligible for the Jags' IR list if he clears waivers.

WR Chastin West: West had a pretty uneventful preseason catching only two passes for 18 yards in three games with the team. The team had a slew of receivers, making it tough for receivers who were not producing at a high level.

LB Nate Bussey: Much like Mike Holmes, Bussey was purely a camp body that really didn't have a great chance of making the team.

Other roster moves: DL Drew Nowack, C John Estes, G Jason Spitz and TE Matt Veldman were all placed on injured reserve to help the Jaguars get down to 75. Also helping make that happen was placing DE John Chick and LB Clint Session on the reserve physically unable to perform list.

Full Team Roster and Projected Depth Chart

2 of 18

The Jaguars currently have 91 players on the roster on the team web site, but it still lists running back Maurice Jones-Drew. Since he is currently on the reserve/did not report list, he does not count against the 90-man limit.

The Jaguars have their top two receivers essentially set in stone with Justin Blackmon and Laurent Robinson.

With that being said, teams typically keep no more than five receivers on their 53-man roster. So expect at least three more cuts or one or two guys moved to the practice squad before it's all said and done.

The big news with the tight ends have been all about the injuries. Zach Miller had been oft-injured during the offseason and Matt Veldman has been placed on injured reserve, opening things up for Colin Cloherty.

Injuries have ravaged this position since the beginning of camp. The lack of depth showed as the second and third units gave up a good amount of sacks.

The Jags were so thin that they moved defensive player Drew Nowack to guard, which could explain the number of sacks in the second half.

The addition of Beekman will at the very least give the team an extra body to use at the guard position in camp.

Centers

10 of 18

OCs on the roster: Brad Meester, John Estes (IR), Mike Brewster

Projected starter: Brad Meester

Offseason additions: Mike Brewster

Roster cuts: None

Projected final roster: Brad Meester, Mike Brewster

With Estes being done for the year after being put on injured reserve, the top two centers are firmly in place. This gives Brewster ample opportunity to sit and learn from one of the best centers in the game in Meester.
